<br />. .: 0.0'" [, #i1 <br />.- . .\,J.,. ... <br /> <br />Parcel MP-IO <br />T. 5N., R. 81W., <br /> <br />Section 33: <br /> <br />Lots 10 & 15; <br /> <br />Parcel MP-II <br />T. 2N., R. 79W., <br /> <br />Section 30: <br /> <br />EY,SEi (portion east of County Road 2); <br /> <br />APPLICANT: This action is a planning amendment initiated by the ELM. <br /> <br />INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />PURPOSE AND NEED FOR THE PROPOSED ACTION: The Kremmling Resource Management Plan <br />(RMP) would be amended to establish land use planning priorities for specific parceIs of land acquired <br />by the Kremmling Field Office since the original RMP was completed in December; 1984. Numerous <br />parcels of land have been acquired through land exchange, donation, or transfer of jurisdiction in the <br />Kremmling Field Office. In most situations, the purpose of acquisition of the properties was similar to <br />the land use priority for adjacent public lands, and plan maintenance was completed to incorporate these. <br />lands into the RMP. This proposed RMP amendment would establish land use planning prescriptions <br />and land use priorities for those parcels of acquired properties with different management direction than <br />adjacent public lands. Changes would also be made to the RMP to facilitate establishing land <br />management prescriptions and land use priorities for future land acquisitions during the environmental <br />analysis of each proposed acquisition. <br /> <br />PLAN CONFORMANCE REVIEW: The proposed action is subject to the following plan: <br /> <br />Name of Plan: Kremmling Resource Area, Resource Management Plan and <br />Record of Decision <br /> <br />Date Aoproved: December 19, 1984 <br /> <br />The proposed management prescriptions have been reviewed for conformance with this plan (43 CFR <br />1610.5, BLM 1617.3). <br /> <br />REMARKS: The proposed action is not in conformance with the existing RMP. This action would <br />identify management prescriptions and land use priorities for specific parcels of land acquired since the <br />original RMP was approved in December. 1984. Changes would also be made to the RMP to facilitate <br />establishing land management prescriptions and land use priorities for future land acquisitions during. the <br />environmental analysis of each proposed acquisition. <br /> <br />COLORADO STANDARDS FOR PUBLIC LAND HEALTH: <br />The administrative action of designating a land use priority would not have an appreciable impact on the <br />Standards of Public Land Health (Soils, Standard #1; Wetlands, Standard #2; Vegetation/Wildlife, <br />Standard #3; Threatened and Endangered Species, Standard #4; Water Quality, Standard #5). During <br />the ongoing rangeland permit renewal process. Land Health Standards were addressed for several of the <br />parcels in association with public lands in adjoining range allotments. This includes parcels MP-3, MP- <br />5. MP-6, MP-7, MP-Il. NP-2. and NP-3. Where appropriate. the relationship of the proposed action to <br />the Land Health Standards is discussed in the affected environmenrlenvironmental impacts portion of <br /> <br />3 <br />
